Review
Want a hot, spicy trip around the world? Save the money on airfare and instead splurge on Robin Robertson s latest work, Vegan Fire and Spice. Already a prolific cookbook author, Robertson tackles some fairly uncharted territory for us vegans, culinarily speaking... Robertson arms her readers with the right way to cool down after one chile too many, and encourages us to try a little more heat than we may usually attempt. Forget the armchair; stovetop travelling is far spicier.
